There is usually a way to remotely turn on/off and adjust the temperature as needed for better control.

We’ve been having pretty wide temperature swings in CT the past few days.

The lowest temperature ever recorded in Los Angeles is 29°.

Re goals, I'd say my main long-term goal is to build a modest real estate portfolio that produces a steady stream of passive income.

They will appreciate the steady stream of work and the investor will appreciate knowing they have a contractor they trust.Architects can also be a good source of referrals.

We are looking at finding a deal on a duplex now because even though the rents are less for annual renters, they would be more steady.

Looking for steady cash flow.

I have a pretty steady pipeline of deals in the area.

Steady incomes are possible, but as most repairs are done, and your paying almost market rates, you can not BRRRR easily or get forced appreciation.

There are reputable ones that do not require that in advance which often means that they are floating one job to pay another and so on.There are a number of good contractors out there and when you find one, hang on and become their steady work and they will remember that when another project comes up.
